THE MORNING..

IhE hNlN
A brighter morning never dawned over
the Magic City OF the Plains than that
OF yesterday, and at an early hour every
body was astir. Before the morning had
far advanced flags and streamers were dis
played from every public building in the
city, and also from many places of bust
ness and private residences, especially
along the proposed line OF march. Long
before 9 o'clock there were many hum
dreds OF people on the streets awaiting
events
Il WESTERN DELEGATION.
When the passenger train from the
West arrived it brought a large delegation
of Knights. Templar from Laramie.
together with the Laramie band and great
numbers of people, not only from Lara
mic City, but from Rawlins and other
points in the territory further west. The
Laramie Knights Templar we're met at
the train by a squad of Cheyenne knights
in full uniform. Headed by the Laramie
band the two organizations marched up
Capitol avenue and from thence to the
place of rendezvous.
THE COPPER BOX.
During the entire forenoon ex Secre-
tary E. S. N. Morgan, who had charge of
the box which was to contain the many
mementoes destined to find a resting
place for centuries under the corner stone,
assisted By Mrs. Morgan, was busy re-
ceiving papers, trinkets, ETC., hat were to
go into the box. After they had all been
received they we're carefully packed into
the box by Mrs. Morgan, while Mr..
Morgan himself turned his attention to
preparing two lists, one of which was
placed in the hands of the Masonic fra
ternity, to be read at the laying of the
corner tone.
FORMING LINE.
Toward moor the crowds on the streets
became much larger and there we're vari-
u signs of the approaching demonstra-
ton which was kindled into a blaze of en-
thusiasm when Col. Of1ey, at the head of
the 18th infantry, marched into the city
and finally halted west of Eddy, on Sew
